Integrated Furnace Control

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

FAILURETO READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING THIS CONTROL COULD CAUSE PERSONAL INJURY AND/OR PROPERTY DAMAGE.

The 50A56-956 is an automatic gas interrupted ignition control that employs a microprocessor to continually monitor, analyze, and control the proper operation of the gas burner, inducer, and fan.

Signalsinterpretedduringcontinualsurveillanceofthethermostat and flame sensing element initiate automatic ignition of the burner, sensing of the flame, and system shut-off during normal operation.

These controls incorporate system fault analysis for quick gas flow shut-off, coupled with automatic ignition retry upon sensing a fault correction.

Kit includes: 1)

Ignition Control 2) Metal Control Box

3)

PRECAUTIONS

Installation should be done by a qualified heating and air conditioning contractor or licensed electrician.

Ifindoubtaboutwhether your wiring ismillivolt,line, or lowvoltage, have it inspected by a qualified heating and air conditioning contractor or licensed electrician.

Do not exceed the specification ratings.

All wiring must conform to local and national electrical codes and ordinances.

This control is a precision instrument, and should be handled carefully. Rough handling or distorting components could cause the control to malfunction.

Following installation or replacement, follow manufacturer’s recommended installation/service instructions to ensure proper operation.

! CAUTION

Do not short out terminals on gas valve or primary control. Short or incorrect wiring may damage the thermostat.

operating cycle prior to initiating ignition

 

 

 

 

Trial for Ignition

The period of time between initiation of gas flow and the action to

7

Period (TFI)

shut off the gas flow in the event of failure to establish proof of the

 

 

supervised ignition source or the supervised main burner flame.

INSTALLATION

! CAUTION

Do not short out terminals on gas valve or primary control. Short or incorrect wiring may damage the thermostat.

MOUNTING AND WIRING

Certain upflow 90% models may require the installation of the provided metal control mounting box. The reuse of the existing door switch and transformer are required. Other models may require new mounting holes. In this case, use the mounting template located in figure 1. Specifically the BGU model furnaces may required not only new mounting holes, but also relocation of the existing transformer. In all cases the wiring connections will remain the same.

All wiring should be installed according to local and national electrical codes and ordinances.

The control must be secured to an area that will experience a minimum of vibration and remain below the maximum ambient temperature rating of 175°F. The control is approved for minimum ambient temperatures of -40°F.

Any orientation is acceptable.

Refer to the wiring diagram, page 4 and wiring table, page 5 when connecting the 50A56 control to other components of the system.

UL approved, 105°C rated 18 gauge, stranded, 2/64” thick insulation wire is recommended for all low voltage safety circuit connections.

UL approved 105°C rated 16 gauge min., stranded, 4/64” thick insulation wire is recommended for all line voltage connections.

After installation or replacement, follow appliance manufacturer’s recommended installation or service instructions to ensure proper operation.
